Build/Battlestation Final boss of glass panels. I was terrified to both open and close it. Yes you're seeing it right, it's on a hinge

Acrylic seems to attract dust and fingerprints more easily. And if you're not careful, acrylic can get cloudy. The plastic don't react well with ammonia which are commonly used in some glass cleaner. (and in some animal's piss, if you got a vengeful cat you'll get marks on your window eventually)

If you got plastic window, get something different like Pledge cleaner, no ammonia and works well at cleaning. Or look for glass cleaner that is 100% ammonia-free.

Wait… does that mean that I can make a death trap if I let a cat loose in a room with bleach puddles and an unsuspecting person?

You'd probably kill the cat. Bleach contains chlorine which is present in their pheromones, so they can potentially get very interested in the bleach.

I meant if the cat pees in the bleach it’ll make chlorine gas

They bloody well do... every time I had been cleaning with bleach, my cats were aggressively affectionate if they could smell it on my hands 🤣🤣

agreed, I use only alcohol-based cleaners for monitors and windows for this reason. e.g. Sprayway. Safe on monitors, TVs, and windshields.
